Please avoid Alcatel as its not VFM.

For battery life & dual sim support - lenovo p770
If you want a mob from established brands then L9 or wait for sony xperia L.

L7 II is very overpriced

Xolo Q800- I would better stay away from such company who do not even disclose the service centre list.

Huawei Device India - Retail Shops | LFR: Reliance Digital, Croma, eZone

Same is the situation in Mumbai. 2 weeks back I went to croma, ezone & Reliance Digital but could not find it they were having Honor, a very old model. I even could not found G330 for my cousin In dec 2012
When I went to reputed mobile shop & asked for HUAWEI the reply was.."Sir ye toh Chinese brand hai hum nahi stock karte , Micromax le lo Samsung ke level ka hai"

@aila if you have used Android before than go for the Android phone. Some restrictions of Windows Phone might cause trouble for you.
BTW which Lumia phone you talking of?

which one : galaxy grand or lumia 720

Guys I need your advice to buy a phone.

I wanted a phone that is fun to use and one that I never get bored with...
I have lumia 720 and galaxy grand in mind.

The point is that lumia:the phone itself is very fun to use and has a lot of nice features at this price.
1) supersensitive screen
2) awesome camera / Carl Zeiss optics
3) Design is awesome as well
4) windows phone
5) light weight and ideal size.

But the problem is that it has 512 MB of RAM is a bit of a con. Also windows phone is new so not many fun apps and games.

Galaxy :the phone is not that fun but the OS is. The phone lacks certain features like supersensitive screen and it has a MASSIVE size so feels a little uncomfortable.

So keeping in mind all these should i buy lumia or galaxy? Is windows phone app market ever going to increase ? please answer me ....

If u never wanna get bored of ur phone, then get Android with good custom ROM support. I'll suggest u to get Xperia SL(compact, 4.3" screen) or Xperia ion(4.6" screen)

Qualcomm MSM8230 is better than any processor found in sub 20k mobile. same for GPU.
